Changes

<i>standard '''Standard streams''' are preconnected '''input and output communication channels''' between a computer program and its environment when it begins execution. The three input/output (I/O) connections are called '''standard input''' ('''stdin'''), '''standard output''' ('''stdout''') and '''standard error''' ('''stderr'''). Originally I/O happened via a physically connected system console (input via keyboard, output via monitor), but standard streams '''abstract''' this. When a command is executed via an interactive shell, the streams are typically connected to the text terminal on which the shell is running, but can be changed with '''redirection''' or a '''pipeline'''.
